Descriptions
Sun Java 1.6.0_03 and earlier versions, and possibly later versions, does not properly verify the authenticity of updates, which allows man-in-the-middle attackers to execute arbitrary code via a Trojan horse update, as demonstrated by evilgrade and DNS cache poisoning.
Sun Java versión 1.6.0_03 y anteriores, y posiblemente versiones posteriores, no comprueba apropiadamente la autenticidad de las actualizaciones, lo que permite a los atacantes de tipo man-in-the-middle ejecutar código arbitrario por medio de una actualización de tipo caballo de Troya, como es demostrado por evilgrade y Envenenamiento de caché DNS.
